Hopefully now they have released it for the PegII, an EFIKA version will follow.


Rogue stated that the Sam440 is their low end.  Expect the next release for something more powerful than A1 and Pegasos II rather than something less powerful than Sam440.

But supposing you want to swap machines (stop using the SAM in favour of the EFIKA, for instance). I'm pretty sure there's no law forcing you with retail copies of things to 'embed' it to that machine.


The Efika version of MorphOS 2.x is locked to the MAC address, I also have a game for my GP2X that is locked to the embedded serial number.

Does this mean that OS4.1 for the PegII will also (mostly) work on an Efika? Even if Hyperion won't officially support it, maybe all it needs is some community made drivers for sound and network and such.


CPU and other low level support is built into the Kernel.  The Pegasos II kernel will not work with Efika because it has no MPC5200B support.
